18. Technological Determinism 101
We live in a culture saturated with the idea that
technologies are, effectively, things in themselves, in
spite of the fact that they arise from and are utilized
and therefore given meaning within particular social
and cultural contexts. We tend to see technologies in
terms of their “thingness” – their shiny gadget glory –
rather than in terms of the affordances or action
possibilities they enable in different societal
situations. This separation of thing from context and
possibility leads to determinism, or the belief that
machines have the capacity to act on us and do things
to us in and of themselves.

36. What the MOOC?
“Precision-built MOOCs challenge the assumption that students need to come
to a campus to interact with resident faculty in order to acquire the knowledge
and skills necessary for credentialing. They therefore have the potential to
undermine the dominant role that campus-based educational institutions have
had as exclusive providers of knowledge and credentials. As competition with
MOOCs increases, they will face the following dilemma: Should they compete
with MOOC-based curricula head-to-head, or should they begin to assimilate
MOOCs into their traditional, residency-based curriculum? On one hand, for
those institutions without the cachet of being highly selective, participation in
the for-profit MOOC model is problematic: acting as a talent broker for
employers would likely siphon away talented, potential degree-seeking
students. It would be great for employers and for students who are qualified to
transition into good jobs, but not so great for institutions that depend on
cultivating and retaining residential talent.
~ James G. Mazoue, EDUCAUSE Quarterly
94. BE REAL!
“You never saw so many phonies in
all your life, everybody smoking
their ears off and talking about the
play so that everybody could hear
and know how sharp they were.”
~Holden Caulfield, Catcher in the Rye
